My family loves this recipe, even my 3 year old! I added chopped spinach to the tomato mixture last time and it really added to the flavor and the nutritional value.

Yummers!! Instead of layering the noodles and sauce, I ended up mixing everything together. This was very easy and will make it again.

Really not that good. Kind of bland. If you are going to try this recipe, I definitely recommend using less pasta. I think the ingredients list should say 1 lb of COOKED pasta. 1lb of uncooked pasta is waaaay too much and I only used about half for the recipe. Also, it's worth noting that all the "sauce" consists of is tomatoes, sausage, and cheese. Not a winner.

This is really good. You have to have the sweet turkey sausage for it to come out right. I've made it with regular Italian sausage and with ground beef and the turkey sausage is the key. I thought it had too much of all the cheeses, especially the ricotta and it does make a LOT to eat, so be forewarned. I only used 1 lb of penne rigate which seemed enough. Next time I'll add a 1/2 an onion and a couple of cloves of garlic but the recipe is very nice as it is.

New cook needs help!! I am going to make two batches and freeze one...can anyone tell me the following:

1. How do I best wrap the dish up to freeze it properly?
2. After freezing, how do I cook this when taking it out of the freezer?

Thank you to my more experienced chefs!

When frying the turkey I add 3 cloves garlic and onion. I add 1 box thawed spinach when adding the tomatos. Use fresh herbs and plain tomoatos. After the last noodle layer I pour one half jar per pan of spagetti sause and then cover with moz, parmesan and asiago cheese. VERY GOOD!!!!!

1 vs 2 lbs of pasta. In the video Robin actually cooked 3lbs of pasta. If 1 was for the recipe and 1 was for her pasta salad, then what was the 3rd lb for?? Still confussed! I had so much left over pasta!!

First, let me start by saying how easy this was to make and how good it was! I love that the recipie was doubled so we can have another one in a couple of weeks! The point of this recipe is not to be "authentic italian" it is a fast, cheap, easy way to feed your family or guests. This really does make enough to feed an army! I served it to my husband, 2 guest and 2 babies and NONE was left!! I used HOT italian sausage in mine to really give it some kick. I also had to use rigationi noodles because i couldnt find ziti. The diced tomatoes that I bought were the kind with basil, garlic and oregeno already in there. For all those who made this and wern't satisified, remember, its YOUR kitchen! Recipes are like guidelines. You dont have to adhere 100%
I loved it and my husband is already planning the next time he me to make this again!

Donna~ I believe the tomato sauce Robin refers to in the recipe is the combination of the tomatoes, thyme, and rosemary. I don't think she's referring to plain tomato sauce in the can. I agree with you about having the option to half a recipe, I wish Food Network would do that too. Hope this helps!

There is something missing in the printed recipe, and cannot figure out how so many cooks managed to make this! In the directions it calls for 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, then again another 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, BUT in the ingredients list, there is NO tomato sauce called for. It calls for 2 cans of diced tomatoes - is this what she calls SAUCE? I do not need to make this much and freeze any, and I do wish that Food Network would provide a choice and measurements for 1/2 the recipe. Other food websites do provide the choice of less or more. I wanted to make this dish for company, but cannot afford to throw it out because the recipe is in error. Any help you can provide? Thanks
